Definitions
- the present invention relates to novel citrullinated peptides recognized by autoantibodies specific to rheumatoid arthritis.
- RA Rheumatoid arthritis
- RA Rheumatoid arthritis
- serum of patients with autoantibodies some of which are specific, and can be a marker of this disease, allowing its diagnosis even at early stages.
- Research has therefore been carried out in order to identify antigens recognized by these antibodies, in order to obtain purified preparations which can be used in standard immunodiagnostic techniques.
- RA-specific autoantibodies recognize different isoelectric variants of (pro) filaggrin (for review, see for example GREENHOUSE and VINCENT, In: Autoantibodies, PETER and SHOENFELD Eds, Elsevier Science Publishers, 271-276, 1996 ). These autoantibodies have for this reason been called “anti-filaggrin autoantibodies (AAF)".
- Requirement EP 0 511 116 describes the purification and characterization of antigens of the family of filaggrins recognized by these antibodies, and their use for the diagnosis of rheumatoid arthritis.
- the epafopes of filaggrin recognized by AAF were identified as regions of the filaggrin molecule carrying citrullyl residues, resulting from the transformation of arginyl residues by a peptidylarginine deiminase ( Girbal-Neuhauser E et al., J Immunol, 162, 585-94, 1999 ; Schellekens GA et al., J Clin Invest, 101, 273-81, 1998 ).
- the analysis of various synthetic peptides derived from the sequence of human filaggrin showed that the elimination (citrullination) was necessary for the constitution of the epitopes recognized by the AAF, which are today also called citrullinated protein autoantibodies (AAPC). This name will be used in the following description.
- citrullyl residue environment also plays an important role (Girbal-Neuhauser E, 1999, cited above, Schellekens GA, 1998, cited above; Union A et al., Arthritis Rheum, 46, 1185-95, 2002 ); some amino acids "permissive" to antibody binding and whose nature probably modulates the binding affinity of the antibody have been identified.
- the -gly-, -ser-, -his-, -thr- and -gln- residues are most often found in the immediate environment of the citrullyl residues of the citrullinated "filaggrin" peptides which, to date, have been identified as carriers of epitopes recognized by the ACPAs ( Sebbag M et al., Rev Rhum, 68, 106, 2001 ).
- citrullinated peptides specifically recognized by AAPC were obtained from filaggrin.
- AAPCs Numerous citrullinated peptides specifically recognized by AAPC, and used for the diagnosis of RA, were obtained from filaggrin.
- the reactivity of these different citrullinated peptides with respect to AAPCs was heterogeneous, with different peptides being recognized by sera from different subjects. This implies that to obtain a diagnostic reagent capable of identifying the presence of AAPC in a large population, it is necessary to associate several different peptides.
- ACPAs are secreted by the plasma cells of synovial tissue ( Masson-Bessière C et al., Clin Exp Immunol, 119, 544-52, 2000 ) and are specifically directed against citrullinated forms of ⁇ and ⁇ chains of fibrin present in this tissue ( Masson-Bessière C et al., J Immunol, 166, 4177-84, 2001 ).
- WO 01/02437 and Sebbag et al. disclose the use of citrullinated derivatives of fibrin for the diagnosis of rheumatoid arthritis.
- Nijenhuis et al. (Clinica Chimica Acta vol.350, 2004, p.17-34 ) discuss the advantages of citrullinated peptides over citrullinated proteins for the diagnosis of rheumatoid arthritis.
- the inventors have undertaken, in order to better characterize the epitopes recognized by the ACPAs, to identify those presented by the ⁇ and ⁇ chains of the fibrin. For this purpose, they evaluated the reactivity of AAPC-containing sera against synthetic citrullinated peptides derived from the ⁇ chain sequence and the fibrin ⁇ chain sequence. Given the known heterogeneity of the reaction profiles of citrullinated peptides derived from filaggrin with AAPC, the inventors have used mixtures of sera chosen to contain AAPC representing the different reactivity profiles observed in the case of these peptides from filaggrin, in order to detect all the fibrin peptides that can be recognized by AAPC.
- the peptides tested were obtained from the sequence of the ⁇ chain and the ⁇ chain sequence of fibrin. A total of 72 peptides, including 41 derivatives of the ⁇ chain of fibrin and 31 derivatives of its ⁇ chain were chosen. Among the 72 citrullinated peptides analyzed, the inventors have identified 13 peptides derived from the sequence of the ⁇ chain and 5 peptides derived from that of the ⁇ chain of fibrin as being significantly reactive with one or both of the mixtures of serums tested, and therefore as carrying epitopes recognized by some of the ACPA present in this mixture (s).
- the inventors then individually analyzed each of the 18 reactive peptides identified with each of the sera constituting the mixtures tested. This analysis confirmed, for the majority of the peptides tested, the wide interindividual variability of AAPC specificity previously observed in the case of citrulline peptides derived from filaggrin.
- citrullinated peptides (4 peptides derived from the ⁇ chain and 1 derived from the ⁇ chain of fibrin), which are each individually recognized. by at least 40% of the sera analyzed, and therefore appear to carry major epitopes.
- these peptides two are recognized by the majority of the sera, and furthermore have complementary reactivity profiles encompassing all the sera analyzed. Each of these sera recognizes indeed one and / or the other of these peptides. This suggests that these two peptides carry structural motifs representative of a very large majority of the different motifs recognized by the ACPAs.
- the peptides according to the invention have a size of at least 5 amino acids, preferably a size of 5 to 25 amino acids, and most preferably a size of 10 to 20 amino acids.
- Citrullinated peptides according to the invention may for example be obtained from fragments of fibrin or fibrinogen natural, recombinant, or synthesis, by the action of peptidyl arginine deiminase (PAD); they can also be obtained by peptide synthesis, by directly incorporating one or more citrulline residues, into the synthesized peptide.
- PAD peptidyl arginine deiminase
- Citrullinated peptides according to the invention also include derivatives of the peptides SEQ ID NO: 1 to 4, and 12 or fragments thereof, defined above, said derivatives bearing modifications intended to improve their recognition by the AAPCs: by way of examples of such derivatives, mention may be made of: cyclized peptides; retro-type peptides, in which L-amino acids are linked in a reverse sequence to that of the peptide to be reproduced; peptides of retro-inverso type , consisting of amino acids of the D series (instead of the amino acids of the L series of natural peptides) chained in a reverse sequence to that of the peptide to be reproduced.
- peptides in which the terminal carboxyl (COOH) function is replaced by a carboxamide function (CONH 2 ).
- particularly preferred peptides are those in which the C-terminal residue is a citrullyl residue whose carboxyl function is replaced by a carboxamide function.
- the present invention also relates to any peptide recognized by AAPC present in the serum of patients with rheumatoid arthritis, and containing at its C-terminus a citrullyl residue whose carboxyl function is replaced by a carboxamide function.
- said peptide contains in its sequence at least one other citrullyl residue.
- said peptide comprises from 5 to 25 amino acids.
- the replacement of the carboxyl function of the C-terminal citrulline residue by a carboxamide function can make it possible to increase the reactivity of the peptide with the AAPCs, or, where appropriate, to make reagents with AAPCs, peptides which are not naturally reactive. .
- Citrullinated peptides in accordance with the invention also include derivatives of the peptides SEQ ID NO: 1 to 4, and 12 or fragments thereof, as defined above, said derivatives carrying modifications intended to facilitate their synthesis and / or improve their stability.
- derivatives include peptides including amino acids whose carboxyl groups are esterified or converted to amide groups and / or amino acids an amino group is alkylated, for example methylated or acetylated.
- the amine and carboxyl groups of the peptides may be present in the form of the salt corresponding to the base or the acid.
- mimotope peptides can be obtained by screening libraries of citrullinated peptides whose sequences are defined from those of the peptides SEQ ID No. 1, 2, 3, 4, 12 of the present invention, used in this context as “model peptides. ".
- these peptide libraries are made by synthesis of different peptides of size between 10 and 20, preferably between 12 and 17 amino acids, in particular 15 amino acids.
- Each of these peptides retains at least 2, preferably at least 4, advantageously at least 6, particularly preferably at least 8, and most advantageously at least 10 amino acids, including at least one citrullyl residue, of the model peptide sequence. chosen at the same positions as on said model peptide, the other positions being variable.
- citrullinated mimotope peptides can be used alone or in combination with other citrullinated peptides and preferably in combination with at least one of the other peptides of the invention, in a diagnostic test of RA to recognize the ACPAs.
- the subject of the present invention is also the use of the peptides according to the invention, as defined above, for detecting the presence of AAPC in a biological sample, as part of the in vitro diagnosis of RA.

- Table II Serum Profile Mixed 97.0459 1 AT 97.0388 3 97.1436 4 97.0169 6 97.0530 7 97.0311 8 97.0506 9 97.0468 10 97.0796 11 97.0907 12 97.1715 1 B 97.0524 1 97.0323 2 97.0794 4 95.0256 5 97.1795 5 97.1474 9 97.0244 10 97.1548 11 97.1210 12
- mixtures A and B are therefore representative of the heterogeneity of specificity of the AAPC + sera.
- the peptides tested were obtained from the ⁇ chain sequence and the fibrin ⁇ chain sequence [portion respectively corresponding to residues 36-635 and 45-491 of the A ( ⁇ ) chains (reference NP Accession: NP_068657) and B ( ⁇ ) (reference SWISSPROT FIBB_HUMAN Prim. Accession: P02675) of fibrinogen].
- the sequences of residues 1 to 635 and 1 to 491 of the A ( ⁇ ) and B ( ⁇ ) chains of fibrinogen are also respectively represented in the attached sequence listing under the numbers SEQ ID NO: 10 and SEQ ID NO: 11, and on the Figure 1 A and B.
- the sequences indicated in bold on the Figure 1 are those of the signal sequences of the proteins followed by those of their fibrinopeptides (A and B, respectively).
- Each ⁇ or ⁇ chain of fibrin was segmented into contiguous sequences of 15 amino acids, and all the peptides comprising at least one arginyl residue were chosen.
- a second set of 15 amino acid peptides overlapping the first, so as to refocus the terminal arginyl residue in the sequence, was chosen.
- a peptide corresponding to residues 621-629 of the ⁇ chain of fibrin was synthesized. A total of 72 peptides including 41 derivatives of the ⁇ chain of fibrin and 31 derivatives of its ⁇ chain were chosen.
- the arginyl residue form (native form) and the form in which all arginyl residues were substituted with citrullyl residues (citrullinated form) were synthesized according to the Merrifield solid phase method with purity. ⁇ 60% [NeoMPS Company (Strasbourg, France)].
- the nomenclature used is the following: the origin name of the polypeptide chain ( ⁇ or ⁇ ) of the fibrinogen from which the sequence is derived, then position in this sequence of the amino-terminal residue of the peptide-position of the carboxy-terminal residue of the peptide. These positions are numbered relative to the N-terminus of fibrinogen. Cit indicates that it is a citrullinated form of the peptide. The position of the arginyl residue which is substituted by a citrullyl residue is indicated as an index. Only the citrullinated forms of the peptides are presented.
- peptides were tested after irradiation of irradiated polystyrene plates (Nunc Maxisorp) in three different buffers (acetate pH 5.0, PBS pH 7.4 and carbonate pH 9.0), in order to optimize the chances of passive fixation.
- peptides (10 ⁇ g / ml) which had very heterogeneous isoelectric points (ranging from 4 to 12 for non-citrullinated forms).
- the specific reactivity of the mixtures of sera with respect to the citrullinated peptides corresponded to the difference between the obtained OD with the conjugated peptide and that obtained with the corresponding native peptide (delta OD).
- the results correspond to the average of 2 determinations. Any citrullinated peptide which makes it possible to obtain a delta OD greater than 0.250 for at least one of the two mixtures A and B after coating in at least one of the three buffers, was considered to be reactive.
- EXAMPLE 3 REACTIVITY PROFILE OF CITRULLINED PEPTIDES REACTING WITH ACPA.
- the 14 peptides carrying the most reactive epitopes were tested independently with the 20 sera constituting mixtures A and B, in order to evaluate the reactivity profile of each of these peptides.
- the tests were carried out in ELISA under the same conditions as in Example 2 above, except that, for each pair of peptides, the coating buffer chosen was used to obtain the highest reactivity. against this peptide during the screening (the buffer where the sum of the delta OD respectively obtained for the A and B mixtures of sera was maximum).
- the dilutions of the sera were adjusted so that they had equivalent avidity for the entire descriminated fibrinogen.
- the dilution was chosen which makes it possible to obtain an OD of 1 in ELISA on the descriminated fibrinogen (Nogueira L, 2002, cited above). Dilutions ranged from 1/20 to 1/2700.
- ELISA plates were coated with the peptide ⁇ 60-74Cit 60,72,74 whose C-terminal function of the carboxy-terminal citrullyl residue is not amidated (form carrying a terminal COOH function, hereinafter referred to as "non-amidated form”). ") with the ⁇ 60-74Cit 60,72,74 peptide whose C-terminal function of the carboxy-terminal residue citrullyl is amidated (form carrying a terminal function CONH 2, hereinafter designated” amidated form ”) and non-peptide citrullinated ⁇ 60-74 (whose C-terminal function of the carboxy-terminal arginyl residue is not amidated), all diluted in PBS.
- Example 2 The mixtures A and B of sera described in Example 1 were tested according to the method described in Example 2.
- the specific reactivity of the peptide in non-amidated or amidated form corresponded to difference between the OD obtained with these two citrullinated peptides and that obtained with the non-citrullinated peptide ⁇ 60-74.
- the reactivity of the amidated form of the peptide appeared to be significantly higher than that of the non-amidated form, which was, however, significant.
- the results correspond to the average of two experiments, each comprising two determinations.
